As of 11:01 AM, the PG is reporting that Dave Littlefield has been fired. I expect the streets downtown to empty in a Mardi Gras-style celebration.
So where do the Pirates go next? Well, my friends at Bugs and Cranks have already started a series entitled "The Search for a CEO", a look at who will guide this team into the next 15 years of losing. Once the CEO is in place, the next Littlefield/Bonifay/Ted Simmons can be named. Let's hope they get it right this time.
UPDATE:
ESPN.com reports that senior director of player development Brian Graham will be the interim GM, presumably because he's done such a great job in his capacity of developing players.
